Hi,

The idea that the vehicle wasn't equipped with fog lights changes things. The switch is different in the vehicle as well as the modules. You can't just wire into the headlamps.

Most times when you get new fog lights, it will come with an inline fuse and a toggle switch. That is what I recommend using.

Let me know what you have. Also, take a few pics and upload them so I can see what you are dealing with,

Let me know.
